Bethell is playing a remarkable knock though.

Outstanding

Decent effort by England, especially Bearthell, but always likely to fall short. If Brook takes that catch, England would be heading to the final now.

Bethell did remarkably. It’s a shame Jof didn’t turn up with the ball.

Bethell was excellent. Some effort that.

This is a simplification of the situation in India in general and Bombay in particular my goodness me?

I wasn't expecting 200 so England did well there, just poor from the fielding and bowlers, especially for the last few overs, from England.

A good effort in trying to chase a huge total, should be a good final.

A good effort, over simplified but the difference was Jofra and Bumrah.

Come on NZ.
